My darling wife and best friend Jette died early on Sunday 14 April 2019 at the age of only 54 in our flat here in Roskilde as I held her hand; the cancer that was diagnosed over two years earlier became incredibly aggressive and hit hard for a four week period. It is heart-breaking but the care received from the wonderful staff at EFEK in Herlev Hospital and the palliative team in Roskilde was superb.

I cannot imagine life without her but I have to be eternally grateful for the most amazing and inspiring and beautiful 28 years that we had together, full of love and laughter and incredible experiences - and of course, that most beautiful smile…that meant so much to so many people - family, friends, colleagues and just people she met in her daily life. The world, not just my world, is a much poorer place.

From the outset we told ourselves that we are stronger together. Together all of us who knew her and are better for that experience can help the ongoing work of these inspiring doctors and carers that can only make things better for the people who come later....If Jette touched your life in some way, then I know that she and I can think of no better way to honour her memory than to support the work of these amazing people.

Tusind tak. Go raibh maith agat. Thank you.


Greg and Jette.
